MB3 at 13 !!! Who was YOUR biggest steal?

Post by Team Legacy » Sat Aug 30, 2008 2:30 pm

Wow.. The biggest steal of CHICAGO went to me!

After days of deliberation about who to take at 13... you guys made it EXTREMELY EASY on me. When the 11th pick came and went, I was GUARANTEED either GORE or MB3...

How strange...

I couldn't believe it was happening, so throw the strategy OUT the window and revert to plan WING IT!

No seriously, our plan didn't change because of this pick, but the next pick, when PORTIS and LYNCH were still at 2.2, we decided to alter from our RB/WR/WR strategy and take our RB2 here. Marshall could have been ours, but we're going to hope that our WRs will fall and make the best of it.

Came back around and picked up Cotchery in the 3rd. (over SS, Boldin and Calvin. Yes I'm high on Cotch this year.)

When Selvin Young was sitting there at 4.13, we couldn't pass him up (seeing as how #14 already had 3wrs in the fold). Followed that up with our 2nd WR, Dwayne Bowe.

These 2 picks will either prove to make or break me. We could have had Gonzo or Driver instead of Selvin (to make up for the points I was losing at WR, but Selvin's upside again was too much to pass up.)

Thought about a combo of Bowe/Driver, but the tug of a solid RB3 quelled those thoughts. I'm hoping Selvin is tha man he thinks he is because I think the choice really looks poor on paper in hindsight.

Okay, that's enough: Here's the roster

QB
McNabb & Campbell

RB
MB3, Lynch, Selvin, CJ3 a MBush

WR
Cotchery, Bowe, RegBrown, Porter, Patten, SS, DJack

TE
Crumpler, ZMiller

PK/DST - Gostkowski and Gmen

TOUGH DRAFT from the guys in Chicago. They certainly didn't let any WRs slide my way. I guess at the end of the day, if I knew for certain I would land Selvin, I would have taken Marshall over Lynch. Oh well.

LET'S HEAR YOUR BIGGEST STEAL!

MB3 at 13 is setting the bar pretty high for steals. Well done!

I'm low on Selvin...but like Cotch and Bowe.

(But not more than Boldin)

He probably slept through the first round, woke up to a 10 second warning, and grabbed the top name from his trusty Yahoo rankings.
That's how Legacy rolls.

I'll change your post:

Well Scott, you realize the only reason I let MB3 go to you at 13 was because SJax was staring me in the mug at 9... :eek:

McGahee at 4.10 after I started with 3 WR's. And yes, I also have Rice.
